Manthorpe Launches Eaves Protection Board for Roofing Solutions
Manthorpe Building Products has unveiled its latest addition to the roofing range: the GEPB Eaves Protection Board, designed to tackle one of the most common issues in roof construction—rotting felt caused by sagging underlay and water retention at eaves level.
The new Eaves Protection Board provides a robust solution for both new build and refurbishment projects, ensuring long-term durability and improved roof performance. Manufactured from 100% recycled polypropylene, the board is not only strong and lightweight (weighing just 450g per unit) but also fully recyclable, aligning with Manthorpe’s commitment to sustainability.
Key Features and Benefits

The GEPB board is injection-moulded for precision and durability, forming part of Manthorpe’s comprehensive roof ventilation system when used alongside complementary products.
Why It Matters:
By eliminating the risk of rotting felt and water ingress, the Eaves Protection Board enhances the longevity of roofing structures, offering peace of mind to builders, contractors, and homeowners alike.
